DAN RATHER - "OBAMA COULDN'T SELL WATERMELONS...".

The implosion that is taking place in the Obama White House as his Presidency is going down the tubes with the apparent failure of the passage of health care is escalating. Though the vote has not taken place the arm twisting to get the votes is turning DC on its ear and creating quite a lot of trouble among the White House staff and still the votes are not there and most pundits do not believe they will ever be there.

Dan Rather former CBS news anchor went on the Sunday talking heads show and in the above video stated that Obama is failing and , "couldn't sell watermelons if you gave him State Troopers to flag down traffic." Of course this slips by the MSM because it was a liberal who made the statement. But it also shows that not only are we on the right disgusted with Obama but those on the left are also.

I do wonder though whether Rather will face criticism for his statement which has very obvious racial connotations. If this had been Karl Rove or Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh or Ann Colter, it would have been headline news, front page above the fold and calls for lynching would have been made for the audacity of using the word watermelon in the same statement as the name Obama. The double standard continues!
